Anyone who lives in the SUPER hot areas (e.g. Phoenix area, Lake Havasu, Yuma) ever grow the following plants? If so-how much shade do they get in your yard during the summer, what times of day do they get sun, and do they survive summers well? And were they in-ground or in a pot? Plants:

  • Blue Anise Sage (salvia guaranitica)
  • Butterfly Bush BUZZ 'velvet'
  • Autumn Sage 'Bright Eyes' (I have a different variety of Autumn Sage that hasn't done too well)
  • Bat Face Cuphea
